품새 Taekwondo poomsae · Yudanja · 9th black-belt form

Ilyeo · 일여

Ilyeo (一如, 'oneness') is the ideal of the Silla monk Wonhyo: mind and body, spirit and matter, as one, the state reached after long technical and spiritual training, and the essence of Taekwondo. The 卍-shaped poomsae line commemorates this Buddhist ideal of perfect selflessness; the form is reserved for 9th dan.

Ilyeo is the ninth of the nine Yudanja forms, the black-belt curriculum of World Taekwondo. It follows Hansu.
